Fans of Friday the 13th and Halloween will love this gruesome slasher following a group of teens hunted by a supernatural killer.

You can run. You can try to hide. But no matter where you are, the scarecrow will find you.

After a heart-wrenching breakup, the last thing high school sophomore Kyle Shoemaker expected was to fight for his life. But that’s exactly what happens after a drunken trip takes he and his friends to the abandoned farm at the edge of town. Nightly, the scarecrow claims one of them, leaving him with little time. Will he unravel the mystery of the scarecrow before it's too late? Or will its secrets remain buried beneath the dirt and wreckage at the old farm?

I do not care for virtual voice however I don't let it stop me from choosing books to listen to. "The Scarecrow" had lots of the slasher type murders which were done well. I did have some issues following the some of the characters and how they transitioned into the story. The virtual voice did not help and some of the more dramatic scenes came off very flat unfortunately. It still is worth a listen if you enjoy murdering scarecrows.

I know it’s AI generated but if you’re going to do this you might as well put in the time and edit it to be good. They can make an AI generated voice of pretty much anyone that has a normal speaking cadence, doesn’t glitch on words, and that can give inflection. The slang and curse words that are what the voice has a hard time with in this book.

Not at all scary! Where were all the parents?? Why didn’t these kids see help from adults??

SPOILER ALERT: if Gary wasn’t a bad person to begin with, why kill the kids? Also if he was after descendants of original killers, why not go after the parents?

This was written seemingly more for young adults - like Goosebumps. There wasn’t much in the way of gore as advertised (actually thankful for this). As an avid horror reader/listener, I ax expecting much more. Totally missed the mark.

More of a Goosebumps story

just didn't grab me, seems more of a YA book. Felt a bit uncanny valley with the narration. Like it was almost there but just not right somehow.

Kinda boring

Artificial voice is too monotone. Pronounces words badly, and often rushed from one sentence to the next. Kills the whole vibe of the story. Story just didn't grab my attention well either. Very simplistic word choices, written like a horror movie script more than a novel. A lot of scenes seemed like we were listening to a description from the Jeepers Creepers films. Some weird word choices/phrases used. Premise isn't executed well, is confusing and doesn't make much sense

Just not that interesting
